A TERMINAL NEPTUNIUM(V)–MONO(OXO) COMPLEX Neptunium was the first actinide to be artificially synthesized, yet its chemistry has remained relatively unexplored. Most neptunium chemistry
involves the neptunyl di(oxo) motif, and transuranic compounds with only one metal–ligand multiple bond are generally rare. Now, a stable complex of neptunium in the +5 oxidation state has
been isolated that features a single terminal Np–O multiple bond. * Michał S. Dutkiewicz * Conrad A. P. Goodwin * Stephen T. Liddle
